Lighting Instructions
Igniter Lighting
Your grill is equipped with an ignition that is activated through the control knob. For proper use, the
igniter electrode should be clean and free from debris. Regular inspection and cleaning is
recommended.
CAUTION
Read the instructions carefully before lighting.
1. Open the top cover or lid.
2. Make certain a propane
canister is installed and
contains a sufficient
amount of propane.
3. Keep your face away from
the grill during the lighting
process.
4. Press and turn the valve control
knob counter-clockwise to
the ”HIGH” position (not more
than 3-4 seconds). As the knob
indicator passes the “ON”
position you will hear a definite
“click” indicating the igniter has
sparked.
5. Make sure the ignition has
taken place and a flame is
present. Blue flames about
1/4” high are proper.
6. Adjust the flame as required
to the proper cooking
temperature.
7. If the unit does not ignite,
turn the valve control knob
to the “OFF” position, wait 5
minutes, and repeat step 5.

OWNER’S MANUAL
Grill Operation
Cooking on the Grill
It is recommended that you do most of your grilling on the “LOW” setting. The grill will continue to
become hotter as you cook. The “LOW” setting will ensure proper food preparation and protect the
grill from excessive heat.
CAUTION
Oil-based marinades could cause flare-ups.
1. Use lean cuts of meats with the excess
fat trimmed off.
2. When grilling vegetables or fish,
lubricate the grill with a light coating of
oil (vegetable oil or olive oil
recommended) to reduce sticking.
3. Grill with the lid closed. The shape of the
grill is designed to reduce cooking time
by evenly distributing heat across the
grill surface.
Page 12
OWNER’S MANUAL
Moving the Grill
Your SUNJOY grill is equipped with universal castors. These moving devices can be used to lock the
grill onto your balcony, deck, or patio. The plastic material will not scratch or mar the surface of your
balcony, deck or patio. They make moving your grill an easy task.
CAUTION
Before starting, make sure the grill is cold.
1. Close the top cover or lid.
2. Pull the grill handle towards your
ideal location.
3. Turn the grill several times until the wheels are
pointed in correct direction.
4. Press the button on the wheels to lock the grill in
place.
A Word About Stainless Steel
Contrary to popular belief, stainless steel can rust. Most commonly, deposits on the surface of the
product will trap moisture. It is this moisture that robs the stainless steel of oxygen. Oxygen is the
element that reacts with the stainless steel to form a protective layer of chrome oxide. Without oxygen,
this reaction does not take place and “crevice corrosion”, or “surface rusting”’ occurs. To minimize this
effect, thoroughly clean your barbeque grill with products specifically designed to clean stainless
steel.
Additionally, stainless steel that has been exposed to high heat for prolonged periods will change in
color and texture over time. The plate and fire pan used to distribute heat evenly across the grill does
so by deflecting high heat over a large surface area. This prolonged exposure to high temperatures
will cause the plate and dome to change color. A blue or brown color change is normal and should not
affect the operation of the grill.
Page 13
OWNER’S MANUAL
Maintaining Your Grill
Exterior Stainless Steel Components:
As previously stated, stainless steel is not impervious to rust or corrosion. Some basic steps are
necessary to maintain the shine and appearance of your grill. We recommend you clean the grill after
each use. Use a mild soap or products specifically designed for cleaning stainless steel. Use a soft
cloth or sponge on the exterior stainless steel. Rinse with fresh water and wipe dry when finished. We
also recommend you cover the grill between uses (optional custom covers are available through your
local retailer or directly from SUNJOY).
Interior Stainless Steel Components:
Interior stainless steel components (fire pan, plate and dome, and burner) are subject to high
temperatures, grease and food residue. The exposure to high heat can cause the interior stainless
steel components to first turn blue, then brown. This is not a failure of the stainless steel and should
not affect the operation of the product.
We recommend a thorough cleaning after each use. Disassemble the interior components and
remove any food residue. A “Scotchbrite” pad or similar product may be used in this process.
Igniter Electrode:
The igniter electrode located beside the burner should be kept clean of debris and grease. The
ceramic insulation and spark electrode should not, however, be damaged in this process. Although
sturdy in its construction, care should be given to the cleaning of this component. Wipe it clean with a
soft cloth to remove grease and food particles.
Grill Grate:
We recommend you clean the grill grate after each use with a brass wire brush while the grill is still
warm. The grill grate can then be washed by hand or in your dishwasher.
Hoses:
Hoses should be checked prior to each use of the product. See the section on checking your hoses.
Control Valve:
The control valve on your SUNJOY grill was adjusted, set and tested at the factory. You should not
attempt to adjust the valve. Call SUNJOY if you suspect your valve is not properly adjusted. Always
follow the recommended safety guides.
Cover:
Do not machine wash the grill cover. Wipe it with a wet cloth to remove dust from the surface. Keep
the cover away from heat when it is not in use. Before placing the cover over your grill, make certain
the unit has completely cooled down.

QUICK REFERENCE CHART
It is important to remember barbecuing is far from being a science. The times and temperatures in
this book are meant to be used as guidelines only. There are many variables involved in barbecuing
which can affect cooking times, such as the cut of meat you are using, weather conditions, the heat of
the fire or your taste in food.
Indirect cooking with an Aluminum Foil Rack
For some types of meat such as Cornish hens, whole chickens, certain fish and large cuts of beef,
you may want to try a more indirect method of cooking. By utilizing a metal pie plate and rack
constructed of aluminum foil, you can slowly bake the meat instead of grilling it. Construct the foil rack
by twisting strips of aluminum foil into cylinder shapes about 1/4” to 1/2” in diameter and as long as
needed to fill the pie plate. Weave the foil cylinders together to form a rack and place them in the
bottom of the pie plate. A small amount of water can be added to the pie plate to keep direct heat off
of the meat.
